Yea I get it now. I didn't realize that there where other possible un-implemented compression methods. Fredrik's post enlightened me. The problem was a false assumption that compression=0 in the arguments was == False seemed logical that compression=1 was True. Sometimes things aren't logical till you see the full issue. In plain english: I couldn't refuse the temptation to guess( and guessed wrong ). +1 on the bzip2 Thanks, M.E.Farmer
